Entrepreneur December 2006 Amanda C. Kooser	On a Roll Flexible display technologies will change the way you do business.
PC Magazine November 15, 2006	Bits & Bites v25n22 Researchers have produced an "invisibility cloak" that works at a specific frequency.
Military & Aerospace Electronics November 2006	Air Force seeks to improve battlefield logistics with recycled laser fuel This achievement removes the need to dispose of used fuel, and will substantially improve warfighting logistics, says the Air Force project officer on the program.
IndustryWeek December 1, 2006 John Teresko	Technologies Of The Year -- Defying Moore's Law IBM researchers have built the first complex electronic integrated circuit around a single carbon nanotube molecule, a new material that shows promise for enhancing performance over today's standard silicon semiconductors.
IndustryWeek December 1, 2006 John Teresko	Technologies Of The Year -- Powering Machine Tools The secret to Mazak's machine-tool success just might be the Mazatrol Matrix CNC.
Chemistry World November 15, 2006 Lionel Milgrom	Carbon Nanotubes: Saladin's Secret Weapon Carbon nanotubes are no longer the proud boast of 21st century materials scientists. It appears their discovery was unwittingly preempted by medieval Muslim sword-smiths whose tough Damascus blades taught the Crusaders the true meaning of cold steel.
Chemistry World November 15, 2006 Michael Gross	Nanoribbons Put Electrons in a Spin A small ribbon made of the carbon honeycomb pattern found in graphite and nanotubes could display intriguing electronic properties and serve as a material for spin-based electronics (spintronics), researchers have predicted.
IEEE Spectrum November 2006 Stephen Cass	Air Power Wish you didn't have to plug in your laptop and cellphone? A team of researchers from MIT may have just the thing for you.
Popular Mechanics December 2006 Glenn Harlan Reynolds	Seeking New Depths High-tech test dive: Will the spread of bubble-free rebreather systems change diving forever?
Popular Mechanics November 14, 2006 Jerry Beilinson	Carbon Futures It's a bit ironic, but the dirtiest of alternative energy technologies could have the biggest impact. Gasification is the process of taking one fuel -- coal, often -- and turning it into a gas (syngas) that can be burned, plus a bunch of other chemicals.
